Product Description
The Stemclub TechCard Move-it Kit explores how simple mechanisms are used to transmit and alter the forces applied to them. Pupils learn that complex machines are combinations of these simple mechanisms and that these are all, in turn, variations of the lever.All materials, components and full instructions are included. Explore mechanical forces and discover that construction can be fun. Great fun to modify, test and compete!
